What’s Currently The Fastest For Gaming?

Knight77

Out of the 10900K (Intels Best?), the 5900X & 5950X,

 

which is the current fastest CPU?

 

I’m looking at doing a new build with a custom loop in order to OC, have the AMD CPUs lived up to the hype and been able to outperform Intel?

 

I know Intel should have a big 2021, with new chips in March and towards end of the year, but interested in what’s currently the best.

5950x should be the fastest, though the craziest ocs are seen on the 5800x, intel's not competitive atm, but the cpus are in stock, though rocket lake is expected to get the crown back by quite a bit, it's limited to 8 cores.

I probably wouldn’t look to do crazy OC’s, just something stable & simple to maximise the CPU/Silicon Lottery, but was wondering with the 5950X as normally more cores means lower clock speed and that’s why I was wondering if the 5900X or 10900K would be faster?

I don't mean to be rude but I'm just curious, have you spent *any* time searching this question on your own? There are like ten million videos on youtube and many many written reviews that cover every possible performance metric a person could ever want to know for the processors in question. 

 

Have you looked at the cinebench single/multithread charts for the 10900k/5900/5950? how about game performance charts? productivity? That should tell you, objectively, what processors are faster for a particular workload. Only you know how you use your PC and what you hope to do with it. 

 

just my .02

I have and I’m seeing conflicting things. 
 

Hence why I’m asking.
